Default suspension & steering ?'s

i got a couple questions in regards to the steering & suspension. i tried doin a simple search for it but wasnt finding what i wanted.

1965 Mustang 289 C code convertible

1) What should the rear ride height be?

2) what sould the front ride height be?

3) whats the main difference between the stock 4 leafs and the "performance" type ones that places like CJ sell for only a few bucks more?
**i am going to call CJ about this as well.


4) are the ball joints that come pre installed in the swing arms decent? i only drive the car maybe 500-600 miles a year and dont do anything but highway cruises or in town cruises.

5) are the tie rods you buy from VA & CJ decent as well? the local shops want $45-50 for the moog ones and dont seem to have store brand ones for my car.



any help is much appreciated. i plan on ordering a lot of this stuff in the next month or so and have started to research what i want to use.

thanks !
